Looking at like $300-500 price point. I want Allen Edmonds-esque quality but with the slimmer more European look. Can you guys suggest some brands? Thanks!

Belay that. For $300 to $500, you should be looking at Carmina, C&J, and Meermin Linea Maestro.

The European look??? As the Austro-Hungarian Dinkelacker look? Or the English Edward Green look? Or English G&G look? Or the Italian Santoni look?

You can find some Santoni's on sale for less than $400~. They make an awesome cap toe European style shoe.

For example, would work well in many occasions. Extremely soft (not flimsy) and well constructed leather as well.

Probably more of the Italian Santoni look. Also looking for shoes with leather soles.

You could do better for the price. How about these Silvano Sassettis from Nordstrom?

Those look great. Nordstroms near me doesn't have them for me to try on. Also I'm looking at buying used online so retail price isn't as much of a factor.
